Setenil de las Bodegas - Awesome Roadtrip in Southern Spain

Can you make a structured video without knowing what to talk about? I guess so... This clueless vlog about a recent road trip adventure through the beautiful countryside of Andalusia in Southern Spain made me realise that not having a plan can sometimes make vlogging even more fun.
The area around Setenil de las Bodegas near Malaga is absolutely stunning and I'm so glad I decided to vlog this day anyway. For any questions about the Roman ruins Acinipo, the cute town of Setenil de las Bodegas, the food or how to get there, please drop me a line below! #setenildelasbodegas #malagaraodtrip

For those of you who vlog - How do you go about planning your videos? Have you ever tried a clueless vlog? ;-)

[@DavidSenteno]

Nellie Winter my life is a clueless vlog. 🤣 JK I generally have a direction or topic. It helps me feel less awkward talking to a camera.

[@gregorsnell]

I try to plan all my videos, but they often don't end up as originally planned.

For my landscape photography vlogs, I tend to know what / where I’m going to photograph but not necessarily what I’ll talk about, as it will depend on the light / conditions. I do want to build a library of concepts that I can use in certain situations so that I’m a little bit more prepared.

[@NellieWinter]

@@matthewhenry6281 That's interesting! I think photography is much more dependent on the weather, yet easier to go into without a plan. And with photography vlogs you have a more niche umbrella-topic, while lifestyle and travel vlogs are a bit more broad. The library idea is also an interesting idea!

[@matthewhenry6281]

Nellie Winter very true. I do think the value we can both provide in our videos is to help those who have never been to a particular location before. I do agree in your case you can go in so many directions (Parton the pun). There is culture, restaurants, activities, locations, etc. Many options but you can run the risk of being all over the place in a video. Btw. Loved the food photography time lapse 👍

[@gregorsnell]

Hahaha love it. Spontaneity rules. The intro sequences are really nice babe. Great storytelling. That area of Spain looks real nice :) Hi Joanna!!!

[@NellieWinter]

Hehe thank you! I miss Malaga already 🙄

[@DavidSenteno]

That theater was amazing. Interesting how they made the effort to have entertainment. Imagine watching a performance in the evening with torches lighting the stage. If I lived there I'd want to put on a performance and set it up like they would have when there theater was new. Thanks for sharing. 🥂👍🏻👊🏻

[@NellieWinter]

Yeah agreed, that would have been spectacular! Especially with all the amazing landscape around and barely any light pollution... :)

This video came out very well for an unplanned or unstructured vlog! The town looked really incredible especially with the homes being built into the rocks. I tend to be very structured with my videos, and I usually plan out my videos ahead of time. I usually try to do a lot of research and think about the type of video I would like to do. I really need to do more videos like this one as they can really bring out the creativity, and a little spontaneity can be fun! I had some exposure to creating some unplanned vlogs in Bali as I would not know about a particular place until we either got there or I was told by you and Greg where we were going.

[@NellieWinter]

Thanks for sharing Scott. I'm with you on the structure, but need to do more videos like this one!

[@martinjn2920]

Loved the video, the fact that it wasn't structured was superb. You should do more videos like this, maybe when just exploring somewhere that is new to you, go with the flow good or bad, show it as it is. Nice one Nellie.

[@christofburkart473]

Schöner Ausflug, vielen Dank fürs mitnehmen. 💗 🍀 🙂

Thumbs up ere' Nellie, I never have a structured video, all off the cuff! Great video vlog adventure - keep them coming - many thanks for sharing :)

[@NellieWinter]

Good to know and thanks for watching!! :)

[@tjsinva]

Spontaneity can be fun. Structure is so 2019. 😏😉 Rock on! 🍺

[@NellieWinter]

Haha, nice one!

[@pattyrosado3935]

Hi Nellie, sense I was little I wanted to live in Granada, I don't know why, I never been there. I ben in Barcelona, and I love it. I like Malaga now because of your videos, but, can you make some videos of Granada if it is possible for you.

[@NellieWinter]

Oh that's wonderful! I've left Malaga and am travelling again atm but will be back soon. So that time i definitely plan on spending some time in Granada 🧡
